The "best blog of September" composed by Karl Ficsh presented a fascinating argument. Should teachers be accountable for standards in technology? In response I ask the question aren't we already? We are all in a 300 level micro computing systems class as a requirement for teacher candidacy. How ever I do see his point, not all current teacher were raised or educated with technology.
However should a teacher be fired for being computer un-savvy ,so to speak? Are teachers fired for using ineffective teaching methods? Or using poor handouts? If teachers should be monitored for computer knowledge then they should also be monitored for other teaching standards as well.
It is easier to monitor computer knowledge by grouping it with existing standards. Computers should be encompassed in the "highly qualified" teaching standards.
